GREAT SOUL IN MY COUNTRY 2 © 2008

Do all dreams have an end? I ask myself in solitude,

Mine was to cease being this way, will I find redemption?

Will I realise it and finally rest,

Or will I continue to wander in this sad emotion, making mistakes?

Will my dream be an exception,

Or will it remain trapped, unfulfilled,

Will I continue to see it, like a distant ghost,

Without ever feeling the body beside me, panting?

Silenced moans, if not of a dead person,

My only lament in life is being the absorbed student,

Unattentive to the lessons the teacher tried to teach,

Now the words carried by the wind, will not change anything.

Discontent remains, and the degree of my pain,

Will not be eased by any verse, nor by love,

I lost my way, in the lessons of life, so scattered,

Now all that remains is this lament, in an eternal verse.
